The answer is B, Eli's hot cocoa.

This is because if you multiply the Arjun's hot cocoa by two to compare it to Eli's, you get

Arjuns new cocoa: 40 mL for every 6 ounces

Eli's cocoa: 45 mL for every 6 ounces

Eli has 45 mL of chocolate syrup versus Arjun's 40 mL (both in 6 ounces of water).

Arjuns: 20 divided by 3 is about 6.6 ml per hot water

Eli: 45 divided by 6 is 7.5 ml per ounce

The correct answer is B.)
